Hair color at a glance
What to Expect From Your Color Visit
Time in the chair
A root touch-up is usually the quickest. Balayage, big blonde changes and color correction take longer. You get a time estimate at your consultation.
Touch-ups
All-over color and gray coverage: every 4 to 8 weeks. Balayage and lived-in color: every few months.
Honest advice
If your dream shade needs two visits to keep your hair healthy, we’ll tell you before we start.
Keep it fresh
Sulfate-free shampoo, cooler water and a gloss between visits keep your color rich.

Questions
Hair Color Questions, Answered
What hair color services do you offer in Austin?
Can you fix color I did at home?
Yes. Bring your hair as it is, and tell us what product you used if you know. We’ll explain what’s possible and plan the safest fix, which sometimes takes more than one visit.
How long does a color appointment take?
A root touch-up is usually the quickest. Balayage, big blonde changes and color correction take longer. Your colorist will give you a time estimate at your consultation.
How do I keep my color from fading?
Wash with a sulfate-free shampoo and cooler water, use heat protection and book a gloss between visits. Our guide on making balayage last works for most color.
Do you cover gray hair?
Yes. We offer full gray coverage and softer gray blending, depending on the look you want. Read about your gray coverage options.
What if I have sensitive skin or have reacted to hair dye before?
Tell us when you book, so your colorist can plan for it. The FDA recommends a skin test before using hair dye, even if you’ve used it before.
How much does hair color cost in Austin?
It depends on your length, thickness, starting color and the service you choose. You’ll get an exact quote at your free consultation. Our guide on what affects the cost of hair color explains why.
